Vintage Leveling Amplifier
Black Rooster Audio is proud to present the VLA-2A Mark II - the world‘s finest emulation of THE opto electronic compressor of the late 1960s. After many hours of hard work, calculus and matching they finally bring you the VLA-2A Mark II plug-in. They have put all their knowledge, engineering skill and heart into designing the most authentic native emulation of this unit to this date. They love to use the VLA-2A Mark II on drums, but it also performs outstandingly well on bass or vocals and carefully adjusting the compression really helps to make your signals shine and just sit in the mix.
Features
Authentic Circuit Emulation
Their realtime component based circuit simulation approach allows for authentically capturing the sound and feel of the analog unit as close as possible. All the crucial parts, including in- and output transformers, discrete sidechain and audio path networks, filters and of course the T4B cell have been faithfully modelled.
SSE2 Optimized Code
DSP operations are pipelined using the SSE2 instruction set. This ensures high performance operation despite very complex computations.
Auto-Adjusted Oversampling for Maximum Audio Transparency
Aliasing artifacts are efficiently attenuated using a low latency linear phase Dolph-Chebyshev polyphase design. The oversampling rate is auto adjusted to your session's sample rate to save CPU while offering the most transparent sound possible.
Highdpi / Retina Support
The user interfaces support high pixel density on both Windows and Mac OS systems to present you with the most enjoyable user experience on high DPI displays. Please refer to your manual to learn whether your DAW is HighDPI capable if you're working on Windows.
